Visit to Dambulla

Dambulla temple is one of the key tourist attraction site among locals as well as foreigners. I have passed Dambulla in many times but never been at this temple for proper evaluation. Therefore this trip was planned to visit at Dambulla cave temple on our way to Aliya resort at Habarana.

Rock of Dambulla & මුරුන්ගාහිටි කන්ද

In 2017 I went passing Dambulla many times and on all of those occasions I was wondering if I could get a birds eye view of Dambulla from Dambulla rock.

Arangala/Nalanda Rock (782m) and few surroundings

Nalanda Rock (Arangala) is situated at Arangala-Naula with the height of 782m. It’s distance view is shape of an ear ring (Arungala (අරුoගල) ->Arangala අරoගල) gave the name Arangala. This isolated mountain is best seen when you travel from Dambulla to Matale via A-9 road, once you reach Naula bus stand. It has three peaks which makes the shape of an ear ring.
